Aix-en-Provence combines old streets, shady squares and warm-toned façades. The villa is in the Milles area, south-west of the city, where getting around is mainly done by car. This part of the commune makes it possible to combine city visits with trips to the Provençal countryside. The neighbourhood suits travellers looking for spacious accommodation and access to different sites in the region.

The Camp des Milles Memorial, housed in a former brickworks turned place of remembrance, is 1.5 km away. The Vasarely Foundation displays the artist’s monumental geometric works 5 km away. In Aix, the Granet Museum houses art and archaeological collections, while Cézanne’s Studio offers a glimpse into the painter’s world. Aix-en-Provence TGV station is 6 km away and Marseille-Provence Airport is 12 km away. In the historic centre, you can explore Cours Mirabeau, its fountains and the shopping streets on foot.

Spring and autumn are good times for city walks and trips to Provençal villages. Summer days are often hot: plan outdoor visits for the morning and save museums or shaded breaks for the sunniest hours. You could combine Aix’s heritage with a visit to Camp des Milles, then continue with a meal in the city centre. A car makes trips to the inland landscapes easier; in the city, the old streets are best explored on foot.
